'20 NE WR Xavier Watts (Notre Dame Man)

[dad4aa]

Terrible timing.

More like terrible placement. Should have posted it in Henning's thread.

Hate it when people hijack threads but what's the deal with Roman Wilson?

NVM just saw the scUM commit

 

[BobbyMac]

Ok. Add me to the Mercy School of Terrible Timing.

Dooh!

 

[NDinMI]

Announcing his commitment at 4pm EST tomorrow.

 

[T-Boone]

yes!

This should close out WR recruiting for us

Maybe with numbers but they’re still recruiting or plan on recruiting top players at the position.

Is that with an idea that Watts could theoretically -> CB and Brunelle theoretically could go -> S?

4 WRs seems like a lot when you can all but guarantee JJ will not be a miss.

Shaq Evans, Devaris Daniels, Davonte Neal, Javon McKinley...

7 out of 10 high 4 star WRs at USC...

Could be, it could also have to do with last cycles small class (2) and both those guys having position flex as well. 3-4 WR's have always been a possibility and if it turns out the 4th WR is near or at the top of the BPA board, then we'll gladly add another.

Keep in mind that adding 4 this cycle gives you 6 over 2 or 3 per class. That's right about where we need to be. One could make the argument that we need less WR's on the depth chart than we have in years past with how many TE's we carry and how often we go with 2 TE sets. But, you're not going to turn away a 4th WR because it's too many.

Awesome news! He’s got some great film and a lot of upside. Welcome to ND Xavier.

I like this pickup a lot. Good offensive weapons in this class all the way around

Per ISD, he’s an EE. Pretty nice group of EE’s from the current group.

Great get

 

[OCIrish]

Nice!!

 

[BobbyMac]

247 & ISD really threw a curveball into this one late. I don't remember an 11th hour bad news rumor that didn't end up happening. Good get. Just get the feeling that he's gonna be a good one.

[irishff1014]

Awesome. Welcome to ND young man!

 

[arndtjc]

Will EE per a family friend here in Omaha

 

[Luckylucci]

Awesome, thanks for sharing. The more EE's the better. And he's certainly a guy that will benefit greatly from the extra time in the S&C program.
